Flood Watch

The Mississippi River will always have its own way; no engineering skill can persuade it to do otherwise. -Mark Twain

John Watson talks on a cellular phone from the roof of his house as he watches floodwaters from the Mississippi River inch closer to his house Thursday, June 19, 2008, in Foley, Mo. Watson, whose house flooded in 1993, has pitched a tent on top of his house and vows to stay with his home if and when the flood reaches him. (AP Photo/Jeff Roberson)
